Talking 2013 F150 XLT Supercab

Hello everyone, glad to be on board.

9 mos. ago, purchased used 2007 XLT that looked to be in great shape. After 9 months, I took it into the ford dealer to run a diagnostic test as I has having issues with the 4 wheel drive and a check engine light. I was told that I needed a new engine and the total for all repairs would be $8,000.00.

I immediately drove to another dealer and purchased a used 2013 F150 xlt 4x4 supercab with 23,000 miles. This truck has the 5.0 litre engine flex fuel. It seems to run great and so far, only a week old, I am very excited about it.

Just wanted to know if there are or where any issues with this year vehicle that I should be aware of. I found out that the 2007 had the Triton engine and was nothing but problems.

Looking forward to hearing from all of you.

Redford has given you the first helping hand by pointing you to the proper 2009+ forum. Give a read through these threads. Overall, that's a pretty trouble-free combo you have there.

Also keep in mind you don't need to freak out if you do find someone with a problem in a truck that's similar to yours. You'll find that a lot of people without problems are too busy enjoying thier trucks to post on the web, so the demogrpahics of sites like these are somewhat skewed.

I bought my '13 XLT Screw in February of '13, I am at 18,XXX and I've had no issues whatsoever. Knock on wood. I've done a lot of long highway miles. Moving about 800 miles to DFW in a couple weeks and am not concerned at all. :-)
